# pwd
/mnt/raid/linux/linux-2.6.15-rc4/include/linux
[root@jackhammer linux]# grep inter_mod *
module.h:extern void __deprecated inter_module_register(const char *,
module.h:extern void __deprecated inter_module_unregister(const char *);
module.h:extern const void * __deprecated inter_module_get_request(const
char *,
module.h:extern void __deprecated inter_module_put(const char *);
